With its 325 reviews Top 25%, Choice of the Deathless could be considered a decent success for an indie game. The chart looks like a long tail distribution, which sometimes means that the marketing was concentrated on the game launch and then stopped, and that no major update or discounts followed.

Time Played

Chart displaying Choice of the Deathless percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the number of hours played in Choice of the Deathless depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time played is decent, reaching 8 hours in the 80th percentile.

The negative reviews play time is 2.2 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. When the negative review time is low (median : 131 minutes), it can be a sign that the game crashes on some systems or that players misunderstood the nature of the game (Does the Steam page clearly explain it, with gifs and a gameplay video ?). It can also mean that some players were somehow offended by Choice of the Deathless and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
